revered defender of beauteo stuart,

of stuart, a na once respected;

a na, which to love was the ark of a true heart,

but now &039;tis despis&039;d and neglected

tho&039; thg like oisture nglobes y eye,

let no one isdee disloyal;

a poor friendless wand&039;rer ay well ci a sigh,

and hers the long dreary night:

but you, like the star that athwart gilds the sky,

your urse to the test is bright
